It’s the room that runs your house, and it shows: cabinets that stick, a tired countertop, outlets you’ve stopped trusting. CMR Improvements remodels kitchens across Hunt and Rockwall counties, one crew, one point of contact, before anyone touches a cabinet.
Whether it’s new cabinet doors and a countertop swap or a full layout change down to the studs, the standard doesn’t move: it gets done properly the first time, or you’re paying for it twice.

Smaller scope is welcome too. Plenty of CMR’s kitchen work is a weekend project.You don’t need a full gut job to get on the schedule.
Ready to stop putting off the bathroom you look at every morning?
A kitchen remodel fails in places you don’t see once the cabinets are hung: outlets that weren’t added where small appliances actually live, a wall taken out without checking if it’s load-bearing, cabinets shimmed level to a floor that isn’t, instead of the floor getting fixed first.
That’s where CMR spends the time before the pretty parts go in. Electrical gets planned around where appliances and countertop outlets actually need to be. Any wall coming out gets assessed for load first, not assumed safe because it looks like drywall. Cabinets and countertops go in level, on a floor that’s actually flat, so doors close right and seams don’t gap a year later.
Here’s what surprises a lot of first-time remodelers: Texas doesn’t require a license to call yourself a general contractor, so the title alone tells you nothing. Plumbing and electrical work are different. Every plumber and electrician on CMR’s crew is licensed by the state and pulls permits wherever your city requires it. CMR carries full insurance on top of all of that, on every job.
None of the electrical planning, the load-bearing check, or the leveling work shows up in a finished photo. That’s the difference between a kitchen you enjoy for years and one you’re calling someone back out for within one.
CMR Improvements is a family-run remodeling company based in Caddo Mills and in business since 2021. The crew works kitchens, bathrooms, tile and flooring, and full remodels across Hunt County and the surrounding area. CMR takes on a small number of jobs at a time on purpose: the person who walks your kitchen and writes your quote is the same person you’re talking to when the cabinets go in.
The thing homeowners say most often about CMR isn’t about the cabinets or the countertops. It’s about hearing from the crew. “Constantly communicated about our start date and status,” one recent review put it. Another: “kept me well informed throughout.” A third described the crew “checking with us frequently for confirmation” at every step.
That’s the point. You’ll know what’s happening in your kitchen every day the crew is there, not just at the start and the end. The crew protects your floors, cleans up before it leaves, and if something behind a wall or under a cabinet turns out worse than expected, you hear about it that day, with options and a real number, not at the end in a surprise invoice. One customer put it plainly: CMR “didn’t charge us anything until we were 100% comfortable with the work.”
And if something’s not right once the job is “finished,” CMR isn’t finished. One customer described our crew coming back to fix a minor flaw after the project was already complete, no argument, no extra charge. That’s the 100% satisfaction guarantee in practice: if you’re not happy, CMR comes back and makes it right. Warranty terms run up to a year, depending on the job.
Every kitchen job runs through the same four stages, whether it’s a quick refresh or a full gut. Here’s what each one covers.
Consultation. CMR walks your kitchen with you and listens before talking: what’s driving you crazy, what you’re picturing instead, and what you’re comfortable spending. A cabinet style you found online or a countertop you liked at a showroom gives the crew something to work from. The budget conversation happens here, upfront, because it decides how much of the kitchen actually changes.
Inspection. Before you get a number, CMR checks everything in the kitchen that can be checked without tearing anything out: the age and condition of the wiring and plumbing, the state of the floor, and whether a wall you want gone is likely carrying weight. That matters most once a layout change is on the table. Some things only show up once the cabinets come out. If one does, you hear about it that day, with options and a real number, not at the end in a surprise invoice.
Renovation. Cabinets and countertops don’t go in until the framing, wiring and plumbing behind them are finished and inspected first: demo, rough-in, cabinets, countertops, tile, fixtures, then finish work, in that order. One crew runs your kitchen start to finish; CMR doesn’t split it across other jobs to keep multiple projects moving at once. Cabinet and material lead times are usually the biggest variable in how long this stage takes, and CMR gives you a real timeline once the scope is locked in, not a guess on day one.
Project Delivery. Before CMR calls the job finished, we walk the kitchen with you, write down anything that’s not right, and fix it before we leave. You get a list of exactly what was installed, useful the day a cabinet hinge needs warranty service, plus care instructions for your new countertops and finishes. If something comes up down the road, there’s a direct number to call, and it reaches CMR, not a call center.
Cosmetic refresh: New cabinet doors or refacing, updated hardware, a new countertop, a backsplash. No layout changes, no moved plumbing, and often done in days rather than weeks.
Full remodel: New cabinets, countertops, appliances and flooring, with the layout staying where it is. This is the most common full kitchen project and where most of the value shows up.
Open-concept and layout changes: Removing a wall between the kitchen and the next room, moving the sink or the range to a different wall, or reworking the whole footprint. This is where the load-bearing check and the plumbing rough-in matter most, and where planning ahead saves the most money.
Accessible and aging-in-place: Lowered or varied-height counters, pull-out shelving, wider walkways and clearance for a wheelchair or walker, task lighting that actually helps. Worth planning into a remodel you were already doing, since it’s cheaper to build in now than to retrofit later.

CMR’s Five Stars
The Answers to
Hiring someone to work on your home means letting them into it for a few weeks, so it is fair to want answers first. These are the questions we get asked most. If yours is not here, call or message us and we will tell you straight.
For a cosmetic refresh (cabinet refacing, countertops, backsplash), usually yes, with some inconvenience. For a full remodel or layout change, plan on a temporary setup elsewhere in the house. CMR will tell you exactly what to expect for your specific scope during the inspection step, not a generic answer.
No. Payment isn’t due until you’ve walked the finished kitchen and you’re satisfied with it. The payment structure itself is spelled out in your written scope before any work begins, so it’s never a surprise partway through the job.
CMR comes back and makes it right, at no extra charge. That’s what the 100% satisfaction guarantee means in practice, and it covers the workmanship for up to a year after the job wraps, depending on what was done.
It depends on the scope, whether the layout is changing, and how quickly cabinets and materials arrive once ordered. CMR gives you a real timeline once your written scope is finalized during the inspection step, rather than a number before anyone’s seen the kitchen.
Yes. CMR remodels kitchens across Caddo Mills, Heath, Quinlan, Grand Prairie, Plano, Nevada, Josephine, Greenville and Terrell, generally within about 50 miles of Caddo Mills. If you’re a little outside that, ask anyway.
